Made this for dinner tonight. Thought I'd have at least my daughter visiting from CO joining us for dinner, but she and her little sister got a craving for Steak n Shake grease & salt. I guess there aren't Steak n Shakes in CO. Oh, well.
The flavor was good, but not the hot jerk flavor we expected. the only heat in the marinade is cayenne, and just 1/4 teasp. Plus you only brush the glaze on the skewers, not marinated. I was distracted tonight because I had someone stopping by and the girls coming and going, I didn't get the skewers evenly rationed, so I had surplus chicken and ran out of sausages so one of the skewers was chicken & peppers. No big deal, but I usually plan better.
The best part of this dinner is th Cuban Sweet potato Salad with pineapple & jicama. This was really good and quick. If I owned an ice cream maker, we'd have tried the Bahamian Guava Sorbet.
So overall, I'd rate this dinner as "good". Not in a hurry to make it again.
